coachtom Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Must say quite impressed with Clarus 3022. Was looking for a blended option to remove frosting and other soy issues with colored candles that has great cold and hot throw (6-7% FO). 3022 is very easy to work with, holds color well, nosecond pour and finished product looks great. Wicking was relatively simple. Thanks Steve for the tips on 3022 !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy6107 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 how do you think that wax will hold up to the summer months if outside at a show/festival? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachtom Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 Hard to say. I think it is 70% soy and 30% paraffin. Doubt you would have the wet spots and seepage. I really don't have the experience really to comment. Maybe Steve can chime in. I think he has been using 3022 for several years. now.

chuck_35550 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 You're welcome Tom. Hot weather and 3022 don't mix. I had to keep my candles in insulated boxes with those pouches that you freeze packed around them and still had some melting. I rotated the display candles to keep them from totally melting and kept direct sun off my with a canopy. This is not a great wax for heat gun fixes either but I have never have issues with poor tops. I try to order my wax during the cooler months, as it gets pretty messy in the summer. Good luck.
